Greetings, I have a file on my PC that has data that needs to be copied into a specific member of a file on my AS/400. I need to parse the data into the proper fields, rearrange the data and add some additional fields to the original data. I have worked out how to do most of this, but am having a problem with a particular field, which in the resulting file on the AS/400 needs to be a packed decimal number. What can I do to convert an ascii decimal number to a packed decimal when I don't have access to RPG or anything else to write a conversion program? Is there a function in REXX to accomplish this? Only one of the numeric fields in this file is packed, the rest are zoned. Thanks, -doug ************************************************ DOUGLAS JOHNSON System Administrator The University Book Store 711 State Street Madison, WI 53703 djohnson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 608-257-3784 608-257-9479(fax)
